    Sorry Froggy, skint now, you should have asked 6 months ago ;). House looks lovely though, here's hoping.

    Hope things work out ok with you & OH, you''ve had quite a year so not surprising it's taken its toll on you both.

    Edit: Anyway, I've only bought one house on impulse. It's not as if I make a habit of it :D

    Oops. And the one in Spain :cool:

  • Hi Froggy - just dropping by to offer moral support and hopes that things improve shortly.

    Re the buying of your house. I'd only consider it if a tall french chef/butler/gardener/man of all jobs comes with it. That way I can put my feet up and really enjoy life whilst the peon does all the work!

    Tere Froggy,

    You don't hang about! That's fantastic news. I'll be a mystery phone bidder if you need one to drive the price up!

    Cheers,

  • Good luck with the viewings, make sure you have vases of dogs about the place and get someone to take the flowers for a walk.
    Please do not confuse me with other gratefulsforhelp. x
  • Good luck on the bidding war froggy !! Hope mine ends up in one too! (even one bid would be fine! :rotfl:) we are not far from where your looking to move :) very nice area but youd get a flat for the price of your lovely looking house!
    hope things with work and OH sort themselves out soon , I think when things are stressful they tend to make everything feel rubbish, are you looking for other jobs still? ( I guess so with the moving plans? ) or can you at least tell yourself there is a time limit on what sounds like a pretty pants one at the moment? when are you planning to move or does it all depend on house sales etc...?

    Hi all

    Oops not been around for a while.. Been quite busy at work as ever...

    Last table tennis game ended being another defeat, but only 6-4 so not too bad considering...
    My mum is over visiting so its been very nice so far, especially all the goodies she has brought with her..
    We are off for a nice meal out and then the casino for a few cocktails and a bit of gambling (within reason)..

    Looking forward to seeing friends next Friday and going to our favourite italian restaurant..

    Glad to hear that CathT has had a gorgeous baby boy and that she is doing fine.. Many congrats to the "T" family!!

    Hope everybody is fine..

    Cheers
